Yet again it's been a wonderful week; on Saturday we had the first rehersal with the woodwind quintet I'm in; I just love it! I'm a bit ambivalent about how the french horn suddenly became a woodwind instrument... We're planning to play every week, and I hope we at some stage can actually have a concert!
Chemistry-wise it's been a couple of good days; my chemistry seems to work - I've made some promising compounds and results already. Today we had the Pfizer symposium in the afternoon with six excellent lectures by PhD students, and a lecture from a guy from Pfizer. I know some of you would have loved that last one: lots of large scale reactions, no chromatography, no work-up, only recrystallisation! Then we started the party. The theme was James Bond, so there was casino games for free; with poker, black jack, roulette and the whole shebang. And of course Dry Martinis, shaken not stirred (which I hope you all understand is wrong - a martini should never be shaken, only gently stirred...). So now every Monday is Martini-Monday!
